Hi mamood,

thanks! it's not that i'm hesitant sending my resue troops, and it's not that i cannot afford but as i have told fti and the rest here i'm a bit bad in rescue operation, don't really have a good timing on entry... look at the first level of rescue i made, it was only like 30 pips down when i deployed my 3 soldiers, and when they too where in deep waters i was really sweating a lot, i guess i'm not that comfortable with that position yet but when i send my last rescue (5 soldiers - and i mean last because if it went 30 pips more deeper...
Just found your thread.
I like it. Good job!
You really are into Forex.
Isn't it wonderfull?

a question.
Why would you change your non-rescue approach when you ar doing so well. or as some say, why to change the horse you ride at mid water of the river?

Be carefull with the rescue thing.
Many people are/were killed with it.
Regards,
Luis

just wondering why people in TFA thread now a days talking crap and just want to show their egor (as fti say it). instead of focusing on the dance and rescue operation training and honing their skills, they're too much pre-occupied with so much bull... spiral within spiral, gann... it's just part of the studies of fti...

they forgot fti's teaching about the monk, and the scorpion tsk! their ego will eat and skin them alive.

sigh! i'm sad, the thread is no longer serve it's purpose.
Correct.
I find your journal more interesting.

Hi lusan,

thanks for dropping by on my journey appreciated it much considering you are one of the learned posters in TFA and one of fti's prodigy.

answer to your question: yes you're right why would i need to change my non-rescue approach... actually i'm not changing anything, i'm poor in rescue thingy the reason i normally cut a bleeding or dying slodier quick, but it's a good skill to learn fti's rescue methodology. He said on his thread before that there are only 2 options for the general to do when the plan go against the soldiers, either cut them (minimal damage/ damage control) a.s.a.p. or implement rescue until it goes back to the same trend and can bring back troops (BE or little profit).

still struggling...

any comment or suggestion regarding my attack, rescue or approach will be much appreciated.

wonderful indeed my friend.



regards,
dongsky

fti once said :

In trading, when the army is non engaged, scouts must always remain in battle field to gauge the markets form. By standers in a battle can hardly "feel" the emoions in the fight. If traders avoid the markets altogether, then point of reference is dependent on ego and self and predictive ways, rather than the info thats coming fom men in battle. Could be self deceiving. Allow the market scouts to inform of form for productive use of the info for formulation of attack strategy, or be ready for defensive engagement to extradite the scouts in trouble. these should form the traders frame of MO.

When can one be sure?

Only when the scouts are doing well and the market volatility affording for your strategies. Therfore one cannot be sure, only "informed" to guide the course of strategies.

In reality all is left to chance, the point is that the chance has to be managed in such manner to give you the advantage and when disadvantaged to impose correct response to reverse said disadvantage.

hai dongsky... are u mainly just trade the eurusd only?
my favorite pairs are: EU, AU & GU, but i find it so spikey the GU for 4 weeks now, so i tried to avoid that pair for now. Since i started this journal, i find it so difficult for me to monitor 2 pairs while updatiing my journal regularly for i'm trying my best to be in real time as well on my journal while in my trades.

why did you ask?

i don't know how long i can keep this journal of my journey updated because it's really hard to do it while in a trade i am doing this just to show my gratitude by giving it back - by showing people about my journey and perhaps they will pick bits and pieces and learn from there; that is why i tried my very best to published everything in real time (always in the now) even my order and limit orders, even my charts and updated set ups...

most of the time i'm wondering if i'm clear enough for others to follow, but sadly that's all i can do.
